I am a passionate operations and human resources specialist with over a decade of experience in education and business sectors. As Founder of Out of the Box Ops, I offer services to streamline processes, optimize systems, and enhance operational efficiency, providing tailored strategies and fractional COO support to businesses for sustainable growth.
